Denmark

Canals, historical buildings, cobbled streets and lots of family-friendly activities. Copenhagen condenses all the best bits of a typical European city with some additional special touches to make it an especially attractive family holiday destination. Particularly in the summertime, Copenhagen with kids is all about cruisey boat rides, street entertainers and families out enjoying the sunshine. As the home to the likes of LEGO and Hans Christian Andersen, you know this is going to be one family-friendly city.

No, we’re not just talking fussy eating here. If you or anyone in your family has Crohne’s disease, is celiac or has an allergy to nuts, for example, watching what you eat while on holidays can literally save your life. Kim Koeller, President and CEO of Gluten Free Passport tells suitcases&strollers about how to travel safely with kids with allergies and dietary restrictions.

laugh. But you and your kids will enjoy yourselves more than you can imagine

about? Here are 10 reasons why cruises make for some of the best family holidays.
